Thanks Jeroen. Yes, that's right. It works. Appreciate your help. The next blockage is during linking the TCL and TK libraries which fail with the following errors :
gcc -m64 -shared -s -static-libgcc -o tcltk.dll tmp.def init.o tcltk.o tcltk_win .o ../../../gnuwin32/dllversion.o -L../../../../Tcl/bin64 -ltcl85 -ltk85 -LD:/R6 4/R-3.3.0/extsoft/lib/x64 -LD:/R64/R-3.3.0/extsoft/lib -L../../../../bin/x64 -lR d:/rtools/gcc-4.6.3/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-w64-mingw32/4.6.3/../../../../i686-w64-m ingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -ltcl85 <---------------- d:/rtools/gcc-4.6.3/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-w64-mingw32/4.6.3/../../../../i686-w64-m ingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -ltk85 <------------------- collect2: ld returned 1 exit status cp: cannot stat 'tcltk.dll': No such file or directory make[4]: *** [shlib] Error 1 make[3]: *** [mksrc-win2] Error 1 make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[1]: *** [R] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 I have my TCL/TK files under D:\TCL and the tcl85.dll and tk85.dll are present under D:\TCL\BIN64 directory. I have D:\TCL\BIN64 in both user and system paths. I did try configuring LD_LIBRARY_PATH (Yes, I know it's only for unix but just in case) to D:\TCL\BIN64 and that didn't work either. What else do I need to do ? (Also, note that I got multiple errors in .h files not being able to be included (for example, lzma.h), for which I manually edited the header files and pointed the absolute directory/filename wherever required.) Not sure if these are all documented somewhere as tips, so that folks can go through in case of issues. Going through archives is tedious. Thx, Venkat.
